methods the basis for many of its othercommercial lines: corporate and asset banking and

treasuryactivities.

Retail BankingGroup has two major areasof activity;

 The retailnetwork for deposit enlistment

 The consumerbanking group.

HBL is the only majorbank to have a very devoted group to serve the Small &Average

Enterprises (SME) sector. HBL trusts that the SME sector can be anmachine of growth

for the economy and signifies an area ofopportunity for the Bank. RBG was therefore

well-known in late 2000 to providebanking facilities and credit on aorganized and

systemized basis. It now covers 25 divisions in the six major industrial cities of Pakistan.

The Group nowworks carefully with its customerswhich cover all sections of the

economy counting the textile sector, vendors and dealers tostructure the finances and

recover their capabilities. We havebeen very encouraged by the outcome that repeats its

belief in thepotential of this sector.There is a growing partiality for consumerspending to

uplift living standards.

Knowing that consumerdemand can be a major motorist of investment andeconomic

growth, theGovernment has also stirred towards an enabling controlling framework and

has also taken creativities to createan suitable legal regulatory

outline toenable the development of a coverfinance market. With its wide branchnetwork

and large customer base, HBL has ancentral role to play inhe development of this sector

of the reduced inwhich it expects large growth in the next five years.

HBL has moved aggressivelyand has already introduced threemajor products;

Page 26 of 41
 Personal loans,

 Financing on cars

 Consumer Strong Financing

insuggestion with major suppliers of consumer products. These have been fine received
and volumes have been building up progressively. It is the purpose of HBL to be a leader
in consumer financing. Devices are also ongoing to develop loan financing for the
housing sector. Trade exists for man due to specialization and division of labor, in which
most people concentrate on a small aspect of production, trading for other products.

Agriculture ismost important donor to Pakistan’s economy. HBL, which has been a

leader in agriculture financing,plans to rise further its credit to thissector with a specific

focus on providing a broader range of products to small and medium size agriculturalists.

In this regard, to provide flexibility, the “Haryali scheme” for farmers was

presentedwhich is a 3-year rotating facility rather than theold-style short term seasonal

financing. HBL’s specific agricultural financedepartment helps agriculturalists in

updating theirfarming techniques. The Govt has also provided a regulatory background to

encourage corporate farmingand as this grows the participation inthis sector. Will grow

even further. While HBLcontinue to develop its products, we know that quality of

customer service willbecome an even betterdistinguishing factor in the market. HBL have

taken a numberof creativities in this area; investing in technology, exercise and upgrading

of its divisions. Extendedbanking hours andbetter services for utility bill expenses have

NEW KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRE

Everything was new to me at Habib Bank Limited, although I have learned a good

knowledge of the teachers, but it was totally different from banking practice. But with the

elegance of ALLAH I am able to learn every situation of the Bank.

WHAT I LEARNT DURING INTERNSHIP:

The most important thing I learn from the bank is the difference between the behaviors of

the officials. And also learn the clerical work of HBL as below.

ACCOUNT OPENING SECTION:

I spent the week in opening section account. Area where I did my internship, people are

not well educated that is why every time a new client will come to open an account that

the manager of the operation referred that man or woman to me. Trade is a value added

Page 35 of 41
function: it is the economic process by which a product finds its end user, in which the

specific risks are borne by the merchant.

That I guide that person and how to open an account is filled by me and the entire legal

requirement is completed by me. In the past Habib Bank used an anold form type but is

now using a new way to open an account. Five signatures were required to open the

account.

CLEARING SECTION:

In the clearing section the checks of the different banks are collected and this verification

is cleaned following the method first make two copies of the application and one is

attached by check and a copy is stored in the OBC file (Collection of the external

invoice) . When the related bank receives this check, that the money in account hbl.

SWOT ANALYSIS

The word SWOT means "the internal strengths and weaknesses of the company and its

external opportunities and threats". The purpose of this analysis is to take advantage of

the strengths of the company to achieve opportunities and threats and to correct the

weaknesses of the company. The SWOT analysis is based on statements that if managers

carefully analyze such strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, a policy will be

evident to ensure the organization's achievements.

Strengths and weaknesses related to the internal environment of an organization, while

opportunities and threats are taken by the external environment of an organization. The

following summarizes the internal and external analyzes of HIBIB BANK IMITED:

INTERNAL ANALYSIS:

Page 37 of 41
HBL's internal analysis is the analysis of its strengths and weaknesses. Unless HBL has

internal strengths and controls its weaknesses, it can not seize the opportunities and omit

the threats posed by the external environment. The following are the strengths and

weaknesses of HBL.

STRENGTH:

Strength is defined as that area in which a company performs better than someone or a

feature that puts the advantages of the company compared to its competitors. HBL have

the following strengths:

1. Habib Bank is a well-established bank that enjoys a long history of experience and

profitable operation.

2. HBL is the leading private bank in Pakistan now one day and people rely on it very

high.

3. Has the network of main branch mong various private banks of Pakistan

more locally and internationally.

equipped even in less developed areas.

WEAKNESSES:

perform well as its competitors or a thing that an organization puts at a disadvantage

compared to its competitors. HBL has the following weaknesses.

1. The HBL mission statement is not well defined.

Page 38 of 41
2. HBL is Pakistan's second largest bank, the fact is that it is not a market leader like

NBP. The total assets of HBL are lower than the assets of NBPtotal.

3. It is now a private bank so government support for HBL has declined as it has in the

past.

4. Employees in branch offices are not properly motivated to work with the heart. They

take all the routine activities as a boring job.

5. Employees can not work efficiently because they have time to come, but they do not

have time to go home. They should work late.

6. In the branches of the employees are less, while not the customers are more finally and

the initial days of a month

EXTERNAL ANALYSIS:

An organization has kept its environment constantly to the knowledge of the new

developments and changes in the environment. A change in the external environment will

be an opportunity or a threat. In this case, the organization must use its strengths

appropriately to obtain the opportunities and avoid the negative effects of the threats.

The following are the opportunities and threats of HBL.

OPPORTUNITIES:

Opportunity can be defined as a change in the external environment which, if properly

maintained with the strengths of the organization, will translate into better sales, market

share or revenue. HBL may obtain the following opportunities:

1. You can improve the debit card system.

Page 39 of 41
2. You must establish your branches in small cities are cities because most people live

abroad and earn money and need a source through which their family members can make

money.

3. If foreigners have their accounts in local branches, they send money to their accounts.

4. HBL should expand its branch network in many countries by highlighting the

introduction of electronic funds transfer services.

THREATS:

Threat is defined as a change in the external environment that if it does not occur with

appropriate strategies will result in the loss of market share of profits or income. The

external environment of HBL,

There are the following threats:

1. The fees that are taken by the customer in different activities are more than that is why

customers are not less day to day.

2. The trained and specialized personnel are less at the executive and officer level.

3. HBL affemore the competition of different foreign banks.

4. Foreign banks provide more attractive and efficient services to their clients.

5. Other commercial banks have a good return that is a threat to HBL like Bank Al Habib

& MCB.

6. Low discount rates also negatively affect the types of advances that may affect the

profits of banks.

PROBLEMS I SOUGHT

should be solved for the Bank's better functioning. Some of these problems are:

PROBLEMS:

These problems are: -

1. There are alack of employees performing different work as only a cashier who works

with the full effort but heor she is a human not a machine.

2. A customer can not find any type of newspaper there.

3. In the beginning and end days of the month there are a lot of clients, which causes

discomfort for the interested official and for the Workshop as well.

4. Only a security guard.

5. A separate lady is not held there.

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation I suggest:

I will make the following recommendations for the best function of the Bank:

1. The managements must provide a minimum of an employee like Teller.

2. Daily newspapers should be provided to both employees and customers visiting there.

3. A separate ladies counter should be held there.

4. Bank management should be very alert while granting loans.

5. New talent must be hired to meet competing demand in the market.
